-====== HDip Data Analytics ======
+====== About the 3D Printing Wiki ======
-This is a post graduate, student driven, online collaboration space for notes and reference material for Python based data analytics and not affiliated with academic institutions.
+This wiki aims to collate knowledge on printer hardware, questions about the hardware and how to resolve known issues and also CAD tools and interesting design ideas and focus on designing for 3D printing.
-Click the links to the left for more information on the various topics.

-To request collaboration access to the wiki, contact the administrators through the appropriate slack channels.
-  * [[https://hdipdataanalytics.slack.com/|HDipDataAnalytics.slack.com]]
+This is a 3D printing knowledge base focused on FDM printing, a documented public record of everything related to FDM 3D printing. It is hard to keep track of the range of sources on the web from video links to forum posts to models and snippets of valuable information all over the place, not to mention a place to concisely discuss code snippets, photos and graphs and whatever we need to clearly communicate the point.
-If you are not on slack contact one of the wiki authors directly for instructions to join.
+We answer and ask the same questions in various forum posts and it it's hard to remember everything we did some months in the past, so this is a searchable knowledge base to point to and update as information and technology advances.
-<WRAP center round info 60%>
-We need your help to keep up with the updates on the wiki, please join in and help make this collaboration attempt a success.

-There are multiple attempts to breach the security of the wiki at the moment by bots creating registration requests. This breaks the mail loop and clutters the user base and login admin, so registration is disabled now and needs to be manually done by the admins. So please contact the admin via our slack channel to register.
